...When I was a small girl, I wanted a necklace like this...a mustard seed locket
My best friend had one.
I never did get it.
I was reminded of it today while searching through my spice box
for thyme and dill weed for chicken soup that I was making early this morning....
The little red capped jar just stared at me
and I was back to 4th grade wanting that necklace
"Faith of a mustard seed"
I asked for a sign
Who would know that it would show up
on a cloudy,gloomy day
in the spice box?
Hang in there
all will be well
all will be what's meant to be.
...go ahead let the tears fall
..why do you think God gave us tears?
they wash us out from the inside
and sometimes it takes several car washes to bring relief
but relief does come
Well, this mustard seed locket wanting little girl
believes this.

Oh, I remember those mustard seed necklaces! But it's your chicken soup I crave right now.
ReplyDeleteA sure sign that eventually we get everything that is important!
ReplyDeleteI so hope you are right. Especially about the tear part. I'm preparing. Life is telling a story of possible loss again in our family, though I hope not soon. As the wind blows in gales tonight here, I'm comforted by your yours, and your attitude.
